College Women
The National Intercollegiate Rugby Association (NIRA), which is the competition for NCAA varsity women's college rugby programs, has released its all-academic team.
The list was divided into three groups, a list of those earning a Grade Point Average of 3.7 or higher, a list of those with GPAs of 3.5-3.7, and those with GPAs of 3.3 to 3.5.
It appears that, right now at least, USA Rugby and NCR are at an impasse.
Both sides are leaning on some legal arguments and some realities. The upshot is that USA Rugby is saying you have to be a member of the organization to be able to play members of USA Rugby, and NCR says that's wrong.
Late last month National Collegiate Rugby (NCR) CEO Steve Cohen wrote to World Rugby seeking clarification on World Rugby regulations that might affect NCR’s relationship with USA Rugby—the reply was not necessarily as clear as either NCR or USA Rugby probably wanted.
National Collegiate Rugby has announced that it has entered into a partnership with Go4Ellis, a national, on-demand platform for hiring per diem Athletic Trainers.
Go4Ellis is a Preferred Provider of the NATA (National Athletic Trainers’ Association). Their website is https://go4ellis.com/.
Alexandria "Spiff" Sedrick was just shipped her 2019-2020 Sorensen Award trophy, and here's the proof.
Sedrick was named the MA Sorensen Award Winner as the top women's college player in the country. She would normally have received her trophy at the annual awards dinner in Seattle, Wash. But with the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing, the dinner was canceled.
